Hi all. I would like to be able to adjust my rear ride height. I've got the car lowered 30mm. But it's uneven at the back and a bit too low. I've tried some pads but want more adjustment.
Does anyone have any spring adjusters for sale or can you point me to some. Thanks

EBay, e36 rear adjusters are from £30 s/h, £80ish new.
Or Aliexpress from £30-35 ish.
I may have a set of 2 1/4” adjusters spare, I’ll check tomorrow if they’ll fit.
Fab thanks Ian. I've seen the AliExpress ones but was unsure which where the correct fitment.

If its uneven on the rear I would check the rear beam bushes aren’t knackered or you don’t have a broken spring before spending any money on parts you may not need.

Hi beam bushes have been replaced. And the springs are new. I've heard it's a thing with z3s

These say not for OEM. But are they ok? Thanks for the help
Sorry for the late reply.
I’m pretty sure those are identical to the ones I’m using. The only thing I found is they’re too tight for the spring seat rubber, once forced into the adjuster it won’t slip over the swing arm. I just cut the top of the rubber off, leaving enough to center the adjuster.
The other adjusters I have are too big.

Thanks that's great. They are on the way!
